Property Description

This 1.45-acre commercial parcel represents a compelling opportunity to establish a premier business presence at the heart of the Washington Avenue trade corridor in Ocean Springs, Mississippi. As Jackson County and MDOT undertake the largest right-of-way expansion of Washington Avenue in the area’s history, this site is uniquely positioned to capitalize on the infrastructure investment and the accelerating commercial momentum it brings.

Located at a brand-new, signalized hard corner at the intersection of Washington Avenue and Old Fort Bayou Road, this property offers outstanding visibility and accessibility in one of Jackson County’s most active retail corridors. With a traffic count exceeding 40,000 average daily trips and full ingress and egress from both Washington Avenue and Old Fort Bayou Road, businesses located here will benefit from maximum exposure to a high-volume consumer base.

The surrounding trade area is anchored by a strong mix of national retail tenants and is further supported by a dense concentration of multifamily dwellings and established residential communities. This combination provides a substantial and reliable built-in customer base for virtually any commercial use, from quick-service dining and convenience retail to financial services, healthcare, and specialty trade.

The property’s potential is further enhanced by its proximity to the St. Martin School District. The expansion of Old Fort Bayou Road now connects this intersection directly to St. Martin High School, Junior High, Upper Elementary, and Middle School — generating a consistent and recurring stream of families, faculty, and students throughout the academic year.

Whether acquired via purchase or ground lease, this site presents a rare opportunity to secure a high-visibility commercial position within a rapidly evolving and well-established trade area. Opportunities at newly signalized hard corners in mature retail corridors of this caliber are exceptionally limited. We encourage qualified parties to inquire promptly.
